I have trouble pull starting anything because of arm strength. I saw a trimmer that you could also buy a optional electric start for! It was a Troy Bilt and it was sweet! I'd love to have it! It was quite expensive though, for a trimmer but I guess you get what you pay for.

Since 2001, Troy-Bilt has been owned by MTD Products (Modern Tool and Die Company). It's my understanding that the quality isn't as good as it was before 2001.
Get the manual start and with the savings get a membership to the Y :biggrin:.. it will build up your strength and both will serve you well for years to come :smile:... KennYV
The Troy-Bilt electric start is a little 120 volt drive that you will have to be around an outlet and extention cord to use to start... not really handy, kind or like the electric starters on the small gas snow blowers...
They would spin the engine but you had to be close to ac power:frown:.
